I’m honestly super confused about what you can and can’t do when federation ties have been cut.

  • 100% agree with the bottom statement. There needs to be a way to say that this is not content from beehaw.

    As for modding though… since federation was severed, wouldn’t someone like a beehaw c/lgbtq_plus mod not be able to touch content that was being posted to lgbtq_plus@beehaw.org on the LW instance?

    Couldn’t it just turn into a shit show of people impersonating communities within an instance?

    • I’ll try to get some information on it from the admins, whether reports propagate to the hosted instance, the post’s instance (and whether it still works after de-fed) or both.

      In any case the lemmy.world admins should ban misbehaving and impersonating users.
